Living the good life on a budget.
How on earth is it the end of January already? I can’t believe how fast January has gone by. I suppose sleep deprivation will do that – all the days seem to merge into one. But, we’ve survived 🙂 and our two boys are thriving, though one is slightly more testing than the other! …
December is almost over! As is 2017, obviously. This month has been a month of two halves for us. The first 12 days were relatively normal; nothing exciting happened apart from me celebrating a birthday at the start of the month. Mr FC and I went away for the weekend right at the beginning of…
Goodbye November! Normally I start a monthly review post by saying how fast the month has been. But, for November, that doesn’t seem to have been the case. I’m not sure why, but it seems to have gone by so slowly. It also seems madness that it’s almost December, which means due date month! …
October seems to have whizzed by in a flash. I’m not entirely sure where the month went?! It also has been a much more spend-y month for us, which is frustrating. Mostly things that were necessary (hello car tax) but even so. After the success of September, it’s slightly bitter sweet! We had a…
Goodbye September! I can’t believe it’s already over. How fast did that go?! Although it feels like I’ve lost the last week of the month due to contracting a horrible sickness bug. I don’t remember the last time I have been that ill. For the first 24 hours I struggled to keep water down, never…
How is August over already?! It’s been such a lovely month. I’ve been on holiday for the entire time so I’ve had lots of time to spend with Frugal Baby. It was his second birthday at the start of the month and we celebrated it with family. He still isn’t quite aware what it means,…
As I said for June, July has also passed in a whirlwind. We have been busy! We had a family wedding, plus another wedding during the month so weekends have been full of travel. We finally got our back garden sorted, though I need to buy some more plants for the border. It’s a much…
June seems to have passed by in a whirl wind. We finally got to share our news with everyone [thank you for your lovely comments!]. We also got started on our back garden which I’ve been wanting to do for ages. I went to a wedding of an old school friend and got to catch…
I said this in April, but I’m sort of glad May is over. Again, it’s not been the best month. I’m not even sure why! There are a couple of things hanging over me at the moment which probably isn’t helping. Plus, Frugal Baby is having a lot of disturbed night’s sleep which means we…
To be quite honest, April hasn’t been the best month. I’m not entirely sure why, either. We have had a lovely family break in Scotland, and it was the Easter holidays so I have had some time off work. The weather has got better. Frugal Baby continues to be a joy. There should be no…
